Well, if the judge is pro Microsoft, then he will not encourage a settlement, because he sees Microsoft will win. However, on the contrary, if the judge is pro the DOJ, then he will encourage a settlement, because he already saw no chance for the DOJ to win. Lose in the court is worse than having a settlement out of the court !!!
However, if the judge is against Microsoft, then he will encourage a settlement, because he thinks Microsoft will win. But, if the judge is against the DOJ, then he wil not encourage a settlement, because he saw Microsoft will win in the court !!! So, who will win or who the judge is pro or against, all your guess !!! |
